Friday the 13th is a great day to just stay home and hide in a corner until the clock strikes midnight.

  11. I remember reading about a guy who was superstitious about Friday the 13th, so stayed in bed, but then his bedroom floor collapsed and he died or something.

  12. Sorry but it's an awesome day. It's my oldest daughter's 19th birthday! Now I need to rush through the rest of my work day, so I can go home and bake her a red velvet cake. :)

  13. It's really Saturday the 14th we all should be afraid of! Anyone else remember that movie?

    ReplyDelete
  14. No, it's just a day. Full moon tonight may or may not genuinely affect people's behavior, but not the calendar. Like astrology, it's all just superstition and "parlor games" as a friend likes to say.

  19. Jeffery Tambor! I haven't seen it since I was a kid but I always remember that movie for some reason.
    Even the sequel Saturday the 14th Strikes Back is a piece of art that cannot be denied.

    1. Sooooooo, no picking a fight with your fiancee for me. I totally did not call him a big wuss.

    2. Maybe Shocky is the one graduating, hmmm Charlie?

      Delete
    3. She very well could be, my little Wiglet. However, her left hand visible in the pic looks to be in too nice of shape to have been bitch slapping little punks like me around. Whereas her fiancee looks like he could break me with mere intention. That being said, I could be wrong.

    4. @charlie and @wiglet haha! It's my friend:) I am training for my green belt though. I like elbows and groin kicks. They keep the hands pretty

    5. Hats off to you, Shocky! My 15-year old son does Krav and it's awesome and wicked hard. I'm happy just to watch.

  26. In my country it´s not Friday the 13th, it´s actually Tuesday the 13th. So I´m completely saf... hang on a minute, someone´s at the door...

  27. I walked under a latter @ Party City.
    I'll let u kno how that goes.

  28. It's fun to comment and joke about it, but it's just a day, a superstition, as @FS mentioned. Calendars are a man-made construct. And I'm skeptical about the lunar effect, too.

    That said, I think it's pretty cool to be able to say I was born on a Friday the 13th with a full moon. :)

    @Sugar, ahahaha, I had forgotten about that movie. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Nah Friday the 13th means getting out the hog and driving down to Port Dover on Lake Erie for a wild day and/or weekend.

    Born to be Wild. Lots of people with assless chaps apparently.

    Better than when Friday the 13th falls in the winter time.

  34. I've always found Friday the 13th to be a really great day for me. This one seems to be no exception so far, but we'll see how it goes with that full moon!

  35. Friday the 13th... Full moon...
    Gonna drink some beer and shoot off some fireworks with the neighbors.

    What could possibly go wrong?

  36. @Bikey - I had to look that up to check it out. Discovered that Spain and the 'Spanish speaking world' have the superstition as being about Tuesday 13.

    Interesting, thanks!

    Also Olé olé olé ... anyone from the 'Spanish speaking world' is going to be World Cupping right now! Go Australia, don't comply with the odds (the game is on now and I have stuff on so I'm avoiding the results until I get home and YouTube it).

  37. @StewMcG Hey, can you do me a favor and tell her she's beautiful* for me? Don't worry, not trying to make a move or anything. It just never hurts to know people think you're beautiful

    *just like her Mom

  38. I'm in LA and I have serious rain envy. This drought is so horrible I eould happily switch weather with some of you for a day or two.

  39. I have absolutely no good luck whatsoever, so Friday the 13ths are usually oddly great for me! My teenager son feels the same way, "hey Mom, there's a Friday the 13th coming, great day for US". I guess it must be genetic ;( .
